Dr. Feldman served on the American Academy of Dermatology’s atopic dermatitis guidelines committee.  He has done ground breaking work on patients’ adherence to their medication treatment regimens, the latter leading to the Wake Forest spin off company Causa Research.  Feldman’s clinical work led him to an interest in patient satisfaction.  Feldman created the www.DrScore.com doctor rating/patient satisfaction website.  He has given invited lectures to dermatology groups and organizations around the world including the Pan Arab Dermatology Meeting held in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, the Iranian Dermatology Society meeting in Tehran, Iran, and the Pan Asian Dermatology Meeting held in Seoul, Korea.  Feldman’s experiences in medicine have led him to try to see how others perceive things, leading to his book Compartments and his recent novella Bent Toward Justice.  Feldman serves on the board of the North Carolina-based Coalition for Peace with Justice.  His research has been published in over 1,000 Medline-reference articles. Feldman also serves as the editor of the Journal of Dermatological Treatment and the Journal of Dermatology and Dermatological Surgery and as chief medical editor of The Dermatologist.
